If people want to go down to two 8-team leagues we could do promotion/relegation again, even better if we can get 4 more for two 10-team leagues.

I'd be fine volunteering to go down to the Championship League if that's what it'll take (although I think I made the playoffs last year).

Hoping I don't have to try to draft with my phone this year.

Bumping this for decision making time. Do I have to remove anyone? Change any of the league settings? Shrink rosters if we have a big league?

There should be a way although I'm not seeing how...I have mine set to my gmail.

FYI I'm on a flight that is taking off at 8:05 EDT tonight so I might make the first round or 2 of the draft but I'm damn sure not paying for in flight wi-fi.

Was able to make my first 5 picks before we got airborne…amazingly only ended up with 2 TE’s. I’m kinda disappointed?

You're definitely going to be disappointed when you find out you missed an Adam appearance.

I love this so much.

Grew up on that show (started in Toronto a few years before it hit the states), so many of their skits are touchstones for my friends and I.
